This is not only an offense the Brazilian culture, but also to the Egyptians. Can you learn, respect and honor the true beauty of these cultures?

Sorry, but no one in Brazil dance like that. As a Brazilian I am ashamed to see those videos... AFFF! I think you should say that moves are invented!!!

Ok so this looks completely ridiculous but I've danced with her many times in class and she DOES know how to dance samba. This is a move we sometimes do because Patricia likes to make up her own moves to keep things interesting but it definitely doesn't look like this in class! I'm not saying this is samba (it's silly to even think it is!) so I agree with the anger about the misrepresentation but if she wants to mix it up a bit who cares??? Dance is about freedom & expression.
